White Russian #8, Halloween Orange #11
Name: shadowsong26
Story: There and Gone in a Second
'Verse: Lux
Colors: White Russian #8. Лежа́чего не бьют. (Don't kick a man when he's down.), Halloween Orange #11. The past is a road where the bus doesn't run, and there's no station called "Yesterday."
Supplies and Materials: graffiti (Lilith Faire Day 7: Main Stage), photography, miniature, eraser (Ruth AU), modeling clay, novelty beads (“As soon as one promises not to do something, it becomes the one thing above all others that one most wishes to do.” - Georgette Heyer)
Word Count: 97
Rating: PG-13
Characters: Simon
Warnings: References to abduction/memory erasure/the stuff Michaela does to him.
Notes: Constructive criticism welcome, as always.
The smart thing to do would be to walk away.
He’s caused her enough trouble--working his way into her heart, and then vanishing on her. And he knows, he does know, that it’s not really his fault.
But coming back would be. Disappearing on her again would be.
He’s seen that she’s all right, and that should be enough.
He knows all of this. He’s certainly told himself all of this, over and over and over again, the past two days, since coming back to her—their--hometown.
So why can’t he bring himself to leave?
